Superluminescent diodes (SLD) with a center wavelength of 1.2µm are of interest for use in medical imaging of skin tissue especially in the field of optical coherence tomography (OCT). In this thesis a ridge-waveguide ...

At the 1.55 µm eye-safe, telecommunications operating wavelength, semiconductor diode lasers must have low threshold currents and operate at high temperatures without thermoelectric coolers. Existing diode lasers in this ...

The Tea Party is a social and political movement urging government accountability, individual fiscal responsibility, and personal liberty as outlined by the United States Constitution. In this dissertation, I examine the ...

As part of its nuclear nonproliferation mission, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Global Threat Reduction Initiative (GTRI) is working to develop a sustainable means for producing the critical medical isotope molybdenum-99 ...

Ongoing research at the University of New Mexico (UNM) shows significant improvement in the start time and rate of build-up of microwave oscillations in a relativistic magnetron that uses a transparent cathode. In recent ...

In this dissertation we will prove some ABC Theorems, namely for relatively prime by pairs p-adic entire functions in one variable, for p-adic meromorphic functions in several variables without common factors, under the ...

Prenatal alcohol exposure results in cognitive and physical impairments in children, which are collectively defined as fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs). The disorders account for the largest proportion of intellectual ...

Arsenic is a pervasive environmental contaminant derived from both natural and anthropogenic sources. Epidemiological evidence supports a correlation between arsenic exposure in drinking water and increased rates of ...
